    So if it is predictable and preventable then you better prepare.

    For someone hoping to one day find a new, better job... is LI a tool to that end? Or is it like myspace, a waste of time?

    no worries.

    according to the HR consultants that my company hired, over 80% of career opportunities are never advertised. either the hr dept or head hunters find prospects on here.

    I am leery, but giving it a shot.

    That is 100% true at my place, well not quite. They do have a jobs page on the website, but not sure I'd call that advertising. There are a lot off headhunter companies. Finding a good, reputable one will help considerably.

    For retired folks looking be a part-time job Linked-in is okay. However when it comes to younger people getting their career started it works very well. My son has got numerous hits on his site and has a permanent job now.

    What is LinkedIn?
    It is a source for employers to look at for possible hires. It also provides information to those seeking work. Finally it allows companies to look at other companies.

    I have been on linked in for awhile now. My suggestion to those that join is a simple one. KNOW how you are accepting links with. This is the reasoning behind the statement. People will ask you to introduce them to one of your links. If you dont know them then that shows how reliable you are.

    I have started my company LinkedIn as well. Here is the information on me and LazerQuest.

    Co-owner LazerQuest, LLC (HP LaserJet and Color LaserJet Service and Supplies)

    Greater Denver Area
    Information Technology and Services

    And this is my business link as well.

    Be decisive. Right or Wrong, make a decision. The road of life is paved with flat squirrels who could not make a decision.

    I'm on there. No idea why. Nobody in the area I'm moving to is on there.

    Just black and white words on a screen.
    Not like a conversation in person, with facial expressions, body language, tone of voice.

    Still, we here pretty much slide along without issues.
    Imagine how well we could get along in person.

    Or, we would just think each other is a bunch of assholes
